Pork Pie 0 Posted September 13, 2004 Ok, Doherty worked his guts out today but he falls into the Rob Newman category of centre forward. he has limitations, most of all his first touch. Svenson has been out of sorts..... If we haven''t got a natural "big" centre forward who is in form why not change the system and play without one? Centre Forward is the weakest link in the team so why not play to our stengths instead - play thru the midfield onto mobile (but short) front men to get behind defences (Jarvis, McVeigh, McKenzie?)Remember Mike Walker trying it early in his second spell when the only natural forward at the club was Flecky - we had Eadie, Johnson and O''Neill bombing past the defences and for a while it worked.Thought the midfield looked v soldid vs Spurs, Safri passed the ball well, but thought we would have caused more problems from the start with McVeigh or McKenzie starting instead of the big guy upfront.Just a shame theres no Malky for height at corners Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rich 0 Posted September 13, 2004 pretty obvious wasn''t it, which makes it puzzling we didn''t get one before the deadline. lots of weight on huckerby''s shoulders, i''m sure he can get us through till january Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
